All language subtitles for 1 1 Quarterback.S02E04.720p.HEVC

My agent one time told me, you know,
Kirk, a great strength of yours is that

keep your eyes downfield.

A great curse of yours is that you keep
your eyes downfield, because many times

I don't even think or look at the rush,
and so I'll throw as if there's nobody

around me, and then I'll go back and
watch the clip, and there was a helmet

a shoulder pad right in my ribs, you
know, right before I threw it.

As a pocket passer, I feel like that's
my job.

Home now or never throws.

It's either when the window's closing
down, you've got to decide either I've

to let it rip and risk an interception
here.

Uh -oh.

I'm sure Burrow floats it towards Chase.

And a diving interception.

Or hold on to it and potentially take a
sack.

Burrow steps up. And Burrow is crushed.

Everything's moving really quickly.

One to two seconds is all the difference
sometimes.

Typically less than that, it's
milliseconds, it's half seconds, how

window opens and closes for us down the
field.

Against the Bills, it was the end of the
first half, and we were driving with a

chance to score, I think it was a third
down, and I had St. Brown coming over

the middle, and yeah, if I could have
waited just a millisecond longer.

To kind of let him clear open and make
the throw where I wanted to, we would

have had a nice completion there and
possibly points.

But that's the game you play every week.

Great quarterbacks over the years had
the no -flinch mentality.

Standing in the pocket, staring down the
barrel, getting drilled, and

delivering.

I've done a couple of interceptions in
that situation this year. You usually do

because those now or never throws are
sometimes pretty dicey.

But there also can turn out to be huge
plays.

Oh, that was some throw.

Hit as he throws. Got rid of it just in
time.

Down goes Burrow.

Touchdown!

This Bengals

team has put themselves behind the eight
ball with a 3 -5 start. But if there's

any team in this league that can dig
out, maybe it's a team with Joe Burrow.

They've got a chance.

Joe has the ball. Looking left. Throws.

Caught by Gesicki.

Touchdown pass.

Number five for Joe Burrow to tie his
career high.

Bengals won 41 -24 over the Las Vegas
Raiders.

They're 4 -5.

Their season is alive, at least. Through
all the talk of the past week, their

season is alive.

Joe, what's happening?

How are you feeling today?

So -so?

We're next, please.

A couple guys got pulled a bit.

There was one. It looked like your head
was right in the middle of the guy's

chest.

Hit you through here at all?

Yeah, I mean, that's kind of where I got
hit.

What is so challenging about...

Playing in the NFL is the mindset and
the discipline and the routine of the

season is daunting, and you have to have
your routine to make sure that your

body's right, and you have to have great
mental fortitude to go through that, I

would say.

Just move your feet back. Just try to
get some blood from there.

Joey Boze is the head strength coach for
the Bengals.

Whatever you need, he's going to get it
done for you.

He just allows me to stay super
consistent throughout the season to help

my best self.

One, two, three.

Is the bicep the biggest thing right
now?

Everything else feels great. Cool. Like,
I'm sore, but, like, not in the same

way that I was.

The swelling's down, though, right?

To me, it does not look swollen.

I feel better overall.

Yeah. I was surprised.

One specific thing is, like, I feel like
I'm good now. I was surprised how good

you felt yesterday.

I thought you were going to come in
pretty banged up.

Winning helps that.

This is my fifth season with Joe, and
it's been a process.

But the thing about Joe, he's been very
consistent over the last five years.

There's days we have to adjust because
of his body and how he feels and some of

the things going on maybe on the field.

We're constantly adjusting and being
ready to, you know, pivot.

Today, he had the bicep. We want to get
some blood flow through there, but what

can he do with pain?

We're always working on some sort of
VMO, bottom of his quad, around his

We'll go 225 for the last two.

Great job.

Just trying to get some movement in
there before tomorrow when he's asked to

throw and do those things at practice.

We're training to make him feel as good
as he possibly can on Sunday and

perform.

Every game counts. I mean, the
Cincinnati Bengals season could be over

weeks. They need to get on a roll, yes.

But is their season completely shot? It
better not be.

What's going on?

How we doing, man? Great.

What's your take on these short weeks?

I like them. I like them because there's
not enough time in the week for

a ton of new stuff. So the game plan is
mostly...

Things that you've done or repped,
playing a divisional opponent, you know

opponent. This was going to be the kind
of game where I got to hang in there,

take some hits, and make some big
throws.

Divisional opponents always mean a lot,
and especially where we are right now,

point of the year, playing Baltimore is
a big game.

Week 10 of the NFL season brings us to
Baltimore.

With the Ravens ready to go against Joe
Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals on

Thursday night football.

The Bengals started out 0 -3, but
they've turned things around. Tonight is

almost what you would call like a make
-or -break game for these guys.

Give Joe Burrow enough time and let him
outscore Lamar Jackson.

Primetime game, you always try to play
your best in those games because whether

you like it or not.

You're going to be remembered by how you
play on primetime because that's when

the most eyes are on you.

161 passing yards for Burrow in the
first half.

He's in the gun with Chase Brown to his
right.

Burrow.

Byers caught Chase.

They're trying to chase him down.

To the crib. To the crib.

To the crib.

Yeah! And they cannot touchdown.

Yeah!

Let's fucking go. Let's go. Let's go.

And now the Ravens are put in a two
-touchdown hole.

Big time. You're fast. You're really
fast.

He's fast.

Very fast.

Big time play, big time drive. Let's log
back in now. Let's log back in. Let's

log back in. Let's log back in.

We're up, and then we get the ball back.

And then we fumble, and they score a
touchdown.

And then it kind of went downhill from
there.

Pressure.

Touchdown. And they've erased a 14
-point deficit to lead by seven.

Well, put the ball at the 30. See if Joe
Burrow can drive the Bengals 70 yards.

Burrow going deep. Getting free.

Chase, look at this.

You talk about number nine responding.

With Joe, everything with him is just.

Straight timing, I got to expect the
ball to be there, and before I looked,

ball was already on me.

Because of Burrow and Jamar Chase,
knowing John Harbaugh,

he's going to be aggressive here.
They're going to try to get a touchdown

same time, work that clock down.

Jackson.

A little jump pass, touchdown.

And they have the lead again.

Joe Burrow lives with these kind of
opportunities.

One timeout.

With the pressure on.

We're good. Down seven.

I always think when the lights are
bright, that's when you're going to get

best Joe Burrow. It's a balance of his
calmness and his urgency. I think that's

what's really unique about him.

Under pressure.

He's got chase.

That chase to the 23.

What a throw by Joe Burrow under that
kind of duress as he's getting high -low

crush. I'm just amazed how Burrow,
picked in that pocket, he gets hit every

of the season. And the guy doesn't
flinch.

In a blink of an eye, they're inside the
red zone.

Got to go, got to go.

From the five -yard line, Burrow catches
the shotgun snap. He throws it into the

end zone. Chase makes the catch.

Touchdown. Tampa 2 in the red zone.

It might be the best throw I've ever
made.

Two guys, the safety in the corner, and
I was able to get it just over their

fingertips.

It's now or never throw. You have to
throw it.

Not an easy throw.

Joe Burrow throws the ball where only he
can make a play on the ball.

What a throw by Burrow to get through
that traffic.

Was he making this risky decision worth
it in this moment of the game?

That time it was.

And then we cut it to one.

And in that moment, I think going for
two is the right call.

So now they go for the lead.

I don't want to say the win yet.

Yosef Otz to the right side. Chase to
the left side.

To the right side he goes.

Incomplete at the goal line.

Hudson matched up one -on -one. Ball
just too high.

And the Ravens are going to pull off a
big victory.

Just fucking failed it.

Fuck, man.

When you don't make that play, it's
definitely disappointing.

But I just left it a little too high.

The Bengals right now are in deep
trouble in terms of their playoff hopes.

They made one more play than we did, and
we've been saying that a lot this year.

But I promise you this, this is a
playoff team.

You guys are going to catch fire and get
in the playoffs.

So don't doubt that for one second. We
have a one -game season next week.

And just understand this. We're going
down fighting.

I'm going for two 100 out of 100 times.

So don't doubt that for one second.

We're going to come in here and win the
game.

We're not leaving it for chance.

Okay? I believe in you guys.

I believe in everybody we need. We don't
need another person to walk in this

building and help us win. We got it all
right here.

What do you guys want?

Do you have Cherry Coke?

Roy Rogers or Cherry Coke? I would do
that as well, please.

With Grenadine?

Grenadine. Please, that's a Roy Rogers.
Please and thank you.

Absolutely.

Just water for me, but if it was the off
-season, I would definitely join them

in having a Roy Rogers. It's my favorite
beverage, the Roy Rogers. It's the best

beverage there is. We drink it for him.
Yeah.

My brother and two high school friends,
every single year, one weekend a year

for a home game, the three of them come
to visit.

Eric started it off with the t -shirts,
Crushing the Capitol t -shirts.

Do we still have those?

I still have mine. The originals? I
don't think I do.

I probably have mine somewhere.

You never have to tell Kirk to work
harder or to focus.

I think at times you can help him give
himself permission to have fun.

Crushing the Capitol started Kirk's
rookie year. At that time, Kirk was

single, living with a teammate, just
grinding on football.

So my thought was, man, I'd love to get
some friends up to the game.

and just help him to have a little fun,
kind of chill out a little bit.

We came up with the moniker Crushing the
Capitol because we were going to the

nation's capital, and the goal was just
to show up and help Kirk have fun.

We get to the game. Three of us are up
in the nosebleeds.

Kirk hasn't played the whole game.

RG3 had been having an amazing season.

And then all of a sudden, Robert goes
down.

Robert comes off very slowly.

Kirk Cousins, number 12, has got his
helmet on.

And all of a sudden, we're looking at
the sidelines, and I think one of these

guys pointed out, like, hey, Kirk's
warming up.

36 seconds left. Not an easy position at
all for Kirk Cousins who comes in cold

off the bench.

36 seconds to play.

Kirk takes the snap.

Flushed out to the right. Goes end zone.
Man is there. Touchdown!

And then Coach Shanahan called a QB draw
on the two -point conversion.

Kirk Cousins gets in!

We're up there just losing our minds.
Like, what is going on?

What a performance by Kirk Cousins.

There was something special to that
weekend, and thankfully we've been able

do it now 13 years in a row.

It's pretty crazy how every year was
like something weird.

Oh, the big one is Tampa, do you like
that?

Biggest Redskins comeback after trailing
20 points or more.

I remember we win the game, I'm walking
off the field, so you were like within

10 rows of where I'm walking.

But you're not that close. Correct.

And the attendant was basically saying
you can't get any closer. And you

basically just bogart the guy. I jump
over like four rows.

I was just screaming at you. I was like,
yeah!

And then you dap me up in the front row.
And then that dap up got him to cover

the Washington Post.

You like that?

You like that?

The Denver comeback a couple years ago.

Was those down here and some other guys
too? Yeah, they just went off.

Be yourself today, buddy.

All right, for sure. Being down three
scores to Denver at halftime and then

coming back and winning the game.

Touchdown!

And the Minnesota Vikings have beaten
the Denver Broncos!

Teams were 0 -99 when trailing by 20 or
more at halftime. Now 1 -99.

1 -100.

Dude. The whole point was like, Just to
make it fun for you. Like you were kind

of out on just grinding. I don't
remember themes until year four when you

hey, guys, Kirk has been the backup all
these years. Now he's actually playing,

so it's business time. I met you guys at
the restaurant late. We were waiting

for you. Late.

And you guys were all in basically coat
and tie.

Correct. Had like a chili.

That was year five. Coach was year five.

They all dressed like coaches.

You guys did the Mighty Ducks Halloween
party that Friday night. That was fun.

As you can imagine, as the years have
gone on, they've started to run out of

themes. I don't think they expected me
to play for 13 years, so I wasn't sure

what this year's was going to be.

Gentlemen, should we... To 13 years?

Yeah, that was tough.

Thanks for making it possible.

Has the bartender commented at all on
the number of Ray Rogers he's making?

No. Homer. We need more.

All right, here we go.

Ow.

Hurts a little.

It happened on, what was that, the first
or second drive?

Titans bring pressure.

He's going to go down.

I knew when I did it, I was like, oh,
it's going to hurt for a few weeks.

This was the most now worrisome ankle in
the city of Detroit.

How long does this take? 30 seconds.
Okay, go ahead.

It was an ankle roll,

but something we did look at. We did
have it scanned, x -rayed.

It was pretty painful.

Nothing that I can't play through. I was
good to go.

Hey, let's go. Let's be great today,
boys. Let's be great. Another chance to

make another fucking big statement
tonight, okay? Have some fun. Let it all

out. One, two, three.

This Texans team is really good, but the
recipe for the Lions of late has been

clean football. They have taken the ball
away. They have not turned the ball

over. You continue that, that's a
winning recipe.

Let's go now.

Let's go now.

Goff's got it back to throw. Does right
side. Knocked up in the air. And it is

intercepted by Houston at the 36 -yard
line.

You're going to do a kick. That's the
one to make, man. I mean, it's a hell of

play by that kid. I know.

It happens.

Oh, good, dude. About that.

180. What's that?

It's all play action. Big steps in the
pocket. He can chase now. He looks.

Throws. That ball is knocked up in the
air. It's picked off.

Two interceptions of deflection.

Keep fighting.

Keep fighting.

Two seconds to go in the half. The Lions
55 yards for the end zone.

Stepping up, rolling to his left, throws
deep downfield.

It is intercepted by Houston.

We have not seen the Lions get work like
this in a game this year, but right now

it is all Houston.

Knew I had to stick in there. You know,
I felt like I was playing fine. I just

was getting a bit unlucky and putting
the ball in a couple situations I maybe

wouldn't have liked to, but.

I've had a lot of plays go my way, and
I've had a lot of plays not go my way,

and you can just kind of chalk it up to
that and move on.

I'm great.

It's more of a mental battle than
anything.

Yes, it is.

It's battling your abs out.

Hey, I'm going to keep ripping this
thing now, okay? Let's go, fellas.

180!

There's the snap to Jerry. Sets in the
pocket, wants to throw. Looks, looks,

blows deep downfield.

That is what's up.

Just up for grabs that time, and Bullock
ran right under it.

Jared Goff came into this game with four
interceptions. He has four tonight.

Like, I've never experienced anything
like this.

There's the shotgun snap to Goff. He's
back, and look, he's got time. No!

Intercepted by Lassiter, his second of
the night.

Fifth interception of the night for
Jared Goff. That is a career high.

Goff just led that time. No chance for
Laporta to catch that football.

What the fuck, man?

What the fuck, man?

Fuck!

It's hard. It's hard to win games in
this league. And it's really hard to win

them when your quarterback has five
interceptions. And I had to fight

that adversity and that kind of mental
battle myself and find a way to finish

that game.

Hey, we've been through a lot worse than
downtown in the third quarter, all

right? Let's go.

This thing's right in our reach. Let's
go.

In that moment, it's a bad feeling. And
at the end of the game, we knew that he

was going to have to make some big plays
for us to win that game.

13, Sam Z.

Give me the walk.

Give me the fucking wasp.

I think I said, give me fucking wasp, is
I think what I said.

Yep.

Yeah, we got the wasp.

I remember thinking that wasp would be
perfect in that situation. We were kind

of sputtering a little bit, and I knew
it would be a big play, and Ben and I do

see things a lot similarly.

You know, I kind of have an idea of
what's coming next.

Sure enough, he sent it in. No, he can't
hear me, but I'm trying to speak it

into existence, and when your play
caller is good and you and your play

are on the same page, typically good
things happen.

I got JMO. Someone get a thing on the
Wasp.

Wasp for us is a double move by our
tight end off of a boot action.

Throughout the week, we had seen that
their middle safety would overplay a

action. Sometimes when you run it with
the tight end, you're able to hide it a

little bit better than with a receiver,
and Laporta is as athletic as a lot of

receivers, so we feel pretty good about
him running that route.

It was one of those games where I felt
like, you know, kind of nothing could go

our way. Nothing was certainly going my
way. And I had a pretty good feeling

that one was going to work.

This is almost turning into a gotta have
it drive.

We need to get some momentum back on our
side.

The tight end inside the five.

Bursting goal. They protect it. They're
going to bootleg to the outside, back

across the field. Big -time play here to
get the Lions going.

Lady with it. Jared takes, turns, throws
right side. Got a complete almond rock.

Touchdown Detroit Lions.

They are right back in this game.

Way to go, 1 -4. Way to go, buddy.

Fourth quarter, Jared made some huge
throws.

He never wavered.

He had the same mentality. He was going
to sling no matter what. In my head, I'm

like, okay, this is it. We're about to
come back. We're going to win.

23 -23, our score, a minute 40 to go in
the game.

Jared's back and looking. Jared's
looking. Throw it. Got him in the rock.

down. He's got the 40 and down to the 37
-yard line.

The Lions can let this run down right
here and send Jake Bates out.

From 52 yards out. Come on, Batesy.

Can he send it through from here?

To send the Lions home with a victory.

He's ready.

There's the snap. Spot. Kick away. It is
up. And it is good.

He got it. Oh, what a comeback by this
team.

Good job. Hey, we're just fucking
different, buddy.

You know that? You know what I mean?
We're just fucking different.

His ability to bounce back, overcome
adversity.

Bad things happen, man. Put it behind
you and go on. Man, that's him.

And I'm telling you, he's done that.

You're talking about for three years
now.

That's been him. In the most critical
moments, man, he's stepped up for us in

huge way.

If you need a defining win in what the
Lions have been the last four years,

that's it.

I love you, our best one. Love you, man.
Love you. Win a fight.

That was a galvanizing moment for our
team to come together and realize that,

hey, man, it doesn't matter, you know,
how it happens. It just matters that we

get it done and that we're there for
each other and have each other's back.

Hey, if that ain't a blessing, it ain't
over till it's over. That's what it is,

boys. Win a fight all day. We're fucking
different.

We're different than all 31 in this
league, all right? Win a fight. Win on

three. One, two, three. Win!

Huge bounce back game after the five
interceptions he threw last week. Four

touchdowns and a perfect QBR.

Wow, look at that.

See that?

647 franchise record yards.

What?

What?

winning streak at eight, their longest
streak since 1934, and they are red hot

and rolling.

Since I've been here in Detroit, we are
0 -3 on Thanksgiving.

The Lions play on Thanksgiving every
year, and, you know, we want to get that

All right.

Happy Thanksgiving coming up. Yeah,
happy Thanksgiving.

It's been a very long time since the
Lions have won on Thanksgiving. They've

lost seven consecutive.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Finish off the dinner.

What in the world is going on?

Happy Thanksgiving.

I'm thankful for every one of you guys.
I'm thankful we get to do this together

today, okay? Have fun. Enjoy it. Enjoy
the moment. Love you, boys.

Love you especially, Sammy. One, two,
three.

Gifts is in the backfield.

They fake it to him. They're going up
top.

for the second time in the game has a
touchdown.

It was a dream of mine. I was fired up
for that turkey.

How long ago was that made?

You grow up seeing it on Thanksgiving.

Ever since I got here to Detroit, that's
always been kind of a bucket list item

for me was to get to eat that turkey
after the game and all the memories I

growing up of watching guys do it. You
have to take a turkey leg because that's

the award.

For me to be able to be the guy doing it
this year was a lot of fun.

This is gonna be an outrageously tight
shirt.

Cooper, do you want to go crap tap with
us?

No.

What? For each theme, we try to surprise
Kirk.

We thought it would be funny to find the
most outrageous of Nash's uniforms.

I came across this video of a guy just
wearing the most ridiculous, like, 80s

fitness outfit.

And I couldn't help but laugh. And so I
texted the video to the guys.

And we just thought it was hilarious.

Typically during dinner on Friday night,
we surprise Kirk.

This is a whole different feel.

I have no idea what he's going to think.

You look good.

Reach. Are you guys wearing deodorant?

Good point. Yes. A lot.

Joey. I think it'll be good for him to
laugh.

Yo,

can we go through here?

Whatever the line was, I thought they
crossed it. I thought, you know, for a

of years it's been good fun, but this is
too much. Like, this becomes like, you

know, look at me.

Kirk's reaction to the outfits did not
surprise me at all. We don't do it

because he's supportive of it or he
loves it.

We do it because we know deep inside he
appreciates it.

Let's go.

Go get them today, bro. You guys are
stupid.

And that was all I needed to hear, to
know that we had the perfect outfit.

Yeah,

the outfit.

I don't know.

They said there was some video on the
Internet of a guy dressed like that, and

they were going off that scene.

It's a lot.

It's a lot.

I don't know what he's doing.

But what was funny was how many
teammates...

or coaches were commenting, and how much
attention we were getting that we

didn't expect to get.

So there are two high school teammates,
and they, the three of them, every year

go to one game.

They have every single year, my rookie
year all the way through.

So they made it a thing, and they never
dressed up like that.

Like, they would, like, kind of, but
they are absolutely bringing it today.

Coaches, teammates, they were all into
it, and I thought, well, if everybody's

good with it, I'm good with it, too.
Like, let's go.

Let's see what Atlanta's got in their
bag here on first and goal with the

9.

His cousin's look, lobbing in some
caught touchdown, Drake London.

They're going for it on fourth and two.

Live from Booney. Come on, 20, 15, 10,
5.

Touchdown, Atlanta.

When you have the intense focus and
you're really enjoying it and

there's a joy with what you do, that's
when you play your best. And it seems

like whenever the guys come to visit, I
play great.

Yeah.

That was a good look. Take a picture.

Take a picture?

You want the glasses on, too?

What's up?

Snap to Cousins.

Kurt Groves.

I can't break through.

There's no talking to you.

It's so sad that you're leaving.

It takes time to believe it.

Sometimes you just have to think share.

This is as good a victory meal as I've
had in a while.

Roy Rogers always delivers.

This was a hard -earned Roy Rogers, but
only one hitting the spot.

Cheers, boy. 13 years, another good win.

Here we go.

Oh, that is tough.

Our division's good. It's got to be the
best in football right now, and we kind

of knew that coming into the year that
our whole division had gotten better and

we were going to have our work cut out
for us.

We're on a good pace, and we've got a
tough little stretch coming up here, and

if we can keep together, it'll be fun.

My good buddy Andrew Whitworth came out
here and was going to do the sit -down

interview with me before the game, and
he handed me the iPad, and I kind of

right then and there was like, oh, here
it is.

Hey, Jared, it's me, Aaron. Your
scholarship is still supporting me in my

year at Albion College, and it just
means so much to me.

I just want to congratulate you on your
wedding.

Congratulations on everything you're
doing with these toy lines.

You're a nominee of the 2024 Watch and
Paint Man of the Year. Keep winning

because you know I'm going to watch the
games.

Congratulations. All the best things are
coming to you that you gave to us.

That's awesome. Thank you. That's
awesome. It's a great way to play it.

Congrats, bro. Very cool. Thank you. To
be nominated for the Walter Payton Man

of the Year, it's one of the highest
honors in our league, and I'm honored

humbled to represent our team. The video
is awesome. Those kids are the best,

and I'm thankful to work with them.

I want to help kids. I want to help
underprivileged youth, and specifically

in Detroit, there's a big space for
that.

And with what we were able to sell with
this, these clothes, what you guys

designed, we're going to be able to give
you guys four years of scholarship.

It's very cool.

I'm going to get emotional.

I'm not naive to the fact that I grew up
in a different world than they grew up

in. Seeing people wear it in the stands
is so cool, and knowing that you guys

designed it, and you guys should be
proud, and I'm happy to be able to

you guys with those scholarships, and,
again, you guys deserve it.

To be able to be there for them and help
them in any way I can and to hear what

they're truly going through and how the
small piece I'm able to do is helping

them, and if I can help one of those
students.

It means everything, and it's a lot of
fun.

I'll echo your students' sentiment.

All the blessings that come to you, man,
you deserve. Thank you. Bless to

others, man. I appreciate it. Thank you.
Thank you for the time.

That was awesome.

It's Packers -Lions. Packers are two
games behind Detroit for the top of the

division. Lions fans, this is the most
important game yet. Right now, it is the

Lions' division to lose.

And the Detroit Lions are going to have
to prove to the entire world that even

though their entire defensive front
seven is injured, they're going to still

able to win games.

We had a lot of guys down. We did.

It was hard, and it was a challenge, but
I won't make that an excuse.

I'm going to tell you how this is going
to go down.

Offense, we are going to fucking put
everything on your fucking ass.

Okay?

I'm just telling you right now.

You got to show up.

You got to show up in a big way.

The way we play ball, we're fucking
going.

We're going four downs all the way up
and down this field.

As long as it's not four fucking 20, you
understand.

We're fucking going.

And we will fucking just march down this
field, and it's going to be so fucking

glorious, gentlemen.

This will be one you're never going to
forget. You know what I mean? Let's

fucking go.

Yes, sir. I love the competition in this
division.

Whoever's going to come out on top here
in a couple weeks, man, you're going to

have to earn it.

It's crazy the amount, like, my heart.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Four
minutes ago, it was not beating like

don't know how you do it. And now it's
like, like, I feel like I'm going to,

Seven. Set.

Third down and goal.

180. Set.

And he'll get stuck at the one. So it's
going to be fourth down.

Dan came into it letting us know, like,
hey, this is going to be an

unconventional type of game. And we
typically are pretty aggressive, but

even a little bit more that game.

Jared said yesterday, he was like, I
think we might go for it on every fourth

down. And I was like, please don't.

Fourth and goal.

I literally can't look.

Does Goff try to sneak it?

Come on. You got this. You got this. You
got this. You got this.

You got this. You got this. Oh, my God.

Throw.

Touchdown.

To Gibbs.

Dan Campbell rolled the dice there.

Hey, so fucking good.

It came up big on fourth down.

It's just who we are. It's who Dan is.
It's what we do. And it's paid dividends

a whole lot more often than it's hurt
us.

Fourth and one. They line up to go for
it. 180.

First down.

Lions down by four. Going to go for it
here.

Fourth and goal from the three. Set.

Dawg has got it back, looking, throwing
middle.

Touchdown Detroit Lions! Tim Patrick!

And it's a big one as the Lions take the
lead back.

Boy, this is a heck of a game. It's
going to be a heck of a finish.

Late in those games, certainly
divisional games, you know they're going

close and get the ball a few minutes
left in the fourth quarter, and there's

nothing you want more than a quarterback
to be able to end it with you on the

field. So the Lions, with the game tied,
will go to work.

We need a score, and then they'll have
time with the ball back.

But we need to, like, try to go down and
not leave that much time for them to go

down.

Hey, how low can we get this?

They'll be left with probably about 50
seconds.

50? Okay, got it.

If we don't get a first.

No, I'm saying they'll have, yeah, if we
don't get a first, they're going to

have at least 50 left. But if we get it,
we'll bring it down to zero. Yeah. I

got it, I got it, I got it.

One more first down and we can drain it
all the way down and kick it, okay? We

need one more first down here, okay?

Let's go, baby. Let's go. Let's go.
Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.

Blitz comes. Goff back. Goff looking.
Goff throwing.

Deep down field. It is caught inside the
25.

Very close to a first down. Does he have
it?

Hold on. We're short.

It's going to be third and one for the
Lions. Third down.

Third down. They're going to need about
a half yard.

180. We're set.

Cole takes the snap turn, gives to Nemo
right side.

He is hit, and he's going to come up
short. It is going to be fourth down and

about a half yard.

Now, this is a fascinating decision.

He's dying to go for it, but obviously
he's got to kick this field goal.

What do we do? Kick it?

I'm not sure what we're going to do.

I'm unsure.

I know the prudent decision would be to
kick the field goal.

go play defense for 30 seconds and
finish it off there. But I know the way

Dan had come into the game mentally was
that we were going to be really

aggressive. We going?

We are under a minute. They got no
timeouts.

We going?

Kick the field goal. That's probably the
right thing to do.

Hey.

Fuck me.

I was pissed that we were not going to
be able to finish the game with no time

left and give them a chance to score.

I think we do feed off each other a
little bit.

So I thought, man, we were hurting on
defense. And we just brought some guys

off the street that were starting for
us. And to me, that's not fair to ask

with 40 -something seconds left to go
out there against that offense.

And I think his confidence is always
going to help me.

Let's fucking finish this.

You got to go, coach.

You got to go. We're going.

They are trying to kill this clock and
put Jake Bates in a position to go win

it. We need a fucking half a yard, okay?
Come on.

Come on. Let's go, boys.

You got it. You got it.

Fourth down.

Jarrett up under center. 180.

My shoe's just a size too big, and I
think one of our linemen got a little

of it.

Jared tripped as he came out from behind
center, handed it to Demo, just barely

got it to him. He got the first down.

You let that clock run now.

Down to 30 and the Packers can't stop
it.

Good fucking job.

Hey, let's fucking go.

That's that shit.

Good fucking call.

If that hadn't worked, our defense would
have had to get a stop and we would

have had to beat them in overtime.

But yeah, big balls by Dan.

Bates is ready.

Lions going for the win.

Box the hole, kick away, it is up and it
is good!

You want to talk about grit? What a
night for the Detroit Lions!

Hey!

Hey! Hey!

Great fucking shot.

4 -5 on fourth down. Amazing.

Hey, you're balling, buddy. Keep going,
alright? We'll see you in the playoffs.

12 -1. Still on top of the NFC.

Fuck yeah!

this game. You will never forget this
fucking game. We don't have to talk

how tough we are. We don't have to talk
about how resilient we are. We fucking

live it, man.

We've been living it.

Hey, like he said, this shit just don't
just fucking happen, boys. We're fucking

different. Again, I'll say it again.
This group's fucking different.

I always said I wanted to play long
enough that my boys would remember me

playing. That's what you wanted. Yeah,
which we're still, I mean, we're still

working on that. My five -year -old's
getting there.

He's getting there.

All right, guys.

This play put a screen porch on my
house. Let's go.

Plus, here you go.

Falcons feel like they're on automatic
pilot right now, just doing really,

really well.

Six and three, they're winning.

Going into week 10, we were six and
three.

You know, we're feeling good about
ourselves. New going on the road in New

Orleans is going to be a tough game. My
Achilles had healed well, but the ankle

itself was still kind of getting
strength back. As long as I had the rest

body, I felt I was good.

Coming into New Orleans, winning five of
their last six, Kirk Cousins is a lot

more comfortable both physically and
also just has a better understanding

running this Jack Robinson offense.

action out of this setup.

Cousins got rid of it just in time.

Mooney inside the five.

Robinson left side and the Falcons find
the end zone.

We got one play at a time.

Let's go drive it.

Just bull rushes him.

Got hit in the second quarter.

Took a helmet kind of right into my
shoulder, ribcage area, and immediately

elbow lit up and I knew, you know, I had
irritated something.

Had a shooting pain kind of right
through my, inside of my elbow.

My elbow got absolutely rocked by a
helmet. I don't, I mean, I'm all right.

Hey, I bruised my elbow. I bruised my
elbow pretty good, so it was going to

me to just keep it loose.

Play catch every now and then.

I'm right here with you.

Oh, man, my elbow hurt.

Oh, goodness.

My shoulder started to really throb, so
I knew right away, like, okay, this is a

little more serious. Once I lost my
shoulder and my elbow, I didn't have

more places to lean on to get the power
I needed. The clock is running. They got

to be thinking touchdown here.

Cousins, tight window, picked up!

Tyron Matthews! And the ball game is
over.

New Orleans has won.

13 touchdowns, three interceptions the
last five games for Cousins coming in.

Today, no touchdowns, and then that
pick.

It's hard looking back to not view it
as, okay, things certainly turned in

moment.

Because, in a way, they did.
